Zhao Yingluo and his entourage arrived at the boundary of Yingzhou It is already late spring weather, unlike the southern post road full of willows, there are more elm and poplar trees on both sides of the road in Yingzhou, standing proudly in the sun. The wheat fields in the distance were full of green mist, and the wheat seedlings were swaying in the wind, and at noon, they arrived at Daluo Town; the seed master Dao sent fast horses to deliver the letter in advance, and Zhang Heng and Quan Yangzi of the boat Huo'er led a large group of men and horses to meet them outside the post station.

Zhang Heng saw the shuai, and didn't care that the master was already a civilian, and still saluted according to the rules of the army, while Quan Yangzi saluted lightly, saw Zhao Yingluo, and said that he would escort all the way to Jincheng. The post station in Daluo Town is not big, and the three large courtyards connected together in the pine and cypress are the places for raising horses, beating sharp, and staying overnight; Zhang Heng invited everyone into the big courtyard in the middle, and set up more than a dozen tables from the courtyard to the house inside, and the tables were placed with simple wine and food.

After Sheng Yu checked that the wine and food were non-toxic, he turned back to Zhao Yingluo and said, "Princess, let's eat here before leaving?"

Zhao Yingluo covered her face with a light veil and said with a smile: "I just want to rest and eat something." ”

Zhao Yingluo said for the two hundred elite horsemen who accompanied him, this time in addition to the seed master Dao, Sheng Yuyi with a large number of entourage, Song Huizong specially allocated two hundred elite cavalry, Gongsun Sheng and Lu Zhishen also led people and horses to follow on the flank to protect;

When Yang Zhi, Han Shizhong and the others walked in, Sheng Yuyi sneered: "Lord Yang is really showing off his power in Yingzhou." ”

After Yang Zhi saluted Zhao Luoying and the breeder, he said to Sheng Yuyi: "Lord Sheng, Yang is reckless, if there is something offended, I hope that the adults will not remember the villain, for the sake of our colleagues, raise your noble hand, and wait until we arrive in Yingzhou, see that day is not busy, how about we talk about the old days?"

Yang Zhi is the highest governor of Yingzhou, and he said so low-key in front of many subordinates that Sheng Yuyi didn't have much to say, looked Yang Zhi up and down, and muttered: "The princess is here." ”

Zhao Yingluo understood what Sheng Yuyi meant, so he smiled and invited Yang Zhi to sit down and said: "This time, thanks to the protection of Chong Shuai and Sheng Yuyi all the way, otherwise I don't know how many things will happen, no wonder the common people say that the royal people come out to spend money, and I really can't go alone." ”

Yang Zhi said with a smile: "It is an honor for Yingzhou for the princess and the handsome to come. ”

Quan Yangzi walked in and looked around, approached Yang Zhi, and said in a low voice: "Qiu Banjiang is outside." ”

"Please. Yang Zhi said in his heart that this was right, how could Song Huizong rest assured that Zhao Yingluo traveled thousands of miles north, and there was a master like Qiu Banjiang, and he didn't know how many people were secretly protecting him; after a while, Qiu Banjiang came in, looked at Zhao Yingluo and bowed: "Alarm the princess, and hope to forgive the sin!"

Zhao Yingluo looked at Qiu Banjiang and whispered: "I have heard of Lord Qiu a long time ago, it is really better to hear than to see, you look more heroic than Yang Zhi." ”

Qiu Banjiang laughed and said: "It's enough to have the princess's words, Yang Zhi, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's drink two bowls of wine first, and then take care of it." ”

Yang Zhi and Qiu Banjiang drank three bowls of wine and said, "We will march later, Master Qiu will stop here." In front of the princess, he said, "Why did you show up?"

Qiu Banjiang replied: "It's because you, Lord Yang, are here, I understand that you let the Yellow River Gang get a share in the glass business, it's completely for the sake of my face, and besides, you're here, my protection in the dark should be over, can you save it?"

Yang Zhi said casually: "It makes sense."

Zhao Yingluo asked Yang Zhi: "How did you divide the shares of glass?"

Gongsun Sheng naturally knew, but Zhao Yingluo was not embarrassed to ask, Yang Zhi introduced: "Maoshan Sect, Anyang League, and the Yellow River Gang each account for one percent, the Shenxiao faction accounts for three percent, and I account for four percent, the princess can rest assured, except for the Yellow River Gang, I dare not say, any other family you need glass, it will be supplied at half price." ”

Everyone laughed, and they all knew that Qiu Banjiang was only a hall master of the Yellow River Gang in name, but in fact the boss of the Yellow River Gang, and even Ming Chisong, the leader of the Yellow River Gang, was the leader of Qiu Banjiang; Qiu Banjiang shook his head and smiled: "Yang Zhi, don't run people, you have such a large amount, the princess still needs to get the goods from others, besides, the goods are produced by your workshop, and it is not your word whether to give them or not." ”

Everyone laughed and laughed and set off with wine and rice, and went on the post road under the escort of Yang Zhi's army, and the post road repaired by the Liao State was still somewhat different from that of the Great Song Dynasty, not only narrow but also did not pay attention to the stone material for paving the road; Daluo Town was only more than 30 miles away from Jincheng, and the chariots and horses were chariots and horses all the way, and it was not yet dusk, and the brigade of men and horses had already entered the city. The patrol rangers along the way and the checkpoints on the outskirts of the city, when they see their own coach leading the team, they will naturally not stop them.

When he arrived at the post house, Yang Zhi originally hoped that Zhao Luoying and the others would have a good rest today, and then arrange the activities of picking up and dropping off tomorrow, but Zhao Yingluo didn't do it, and went directly to the city to play; Yang Zhi knew his responsibility, Yingzhou was a place where people came and went, Yang Zhi didn't dare to leave, so he simply accompanied Zhao Yingluo to watch everywhere. Fortunately, Yingzhou is not Bianliang, and when the curfew arrives at night, as soon as the drums in the city sound, Yang Zhi sent Zhao Yingluo back to the post house.

Seed Master Dao had already gone to the academy and came back, and was chatting with Deng Su, when he saw Yang Zhi, he said, "You just don't go back at night, and we will find Sheng Yuyi later, and we can talk about it." Don't look at Sheng Yuyi's current state, it is strong, her heart is knotted on this girl, if she doesn't say it, she won't be able to live a day of stability. ”

Yang Zhi was right to think about it, and sent someone to send a letter back to the state government, and the seed master Dao asked the soldiers to find Sheng Yuyi, and when Sheng Yu saw that Zhao Yingluo was not there, he said very directly: "Yang Zhi, how much do you know about Feilong Town?"

Yang Zhi smiled and said: "How is your investigation, after decades, most people will not pay attention to it, how is the investigation of the few surnamed Tie I provided you?"

Sheng Yuyi shook his head and said: "That is a great opportunity, I naturally did not let it go easily, but it is very strange, when I went, I also brought the portrait described by Tong Yi, that is, all those people moved away, and the time is also very strange, Du Wanche said that the news was leaked on our side." Yang Zhi, is it a ghost you made?"

Yang Zhiyin smiled and said: "You still look for Tongyi to paint a portrait, that can ensure that the news is not leaked, and the time is wasted, you can completely control everyone first, and then let Tongyi identify it; don't you know that the surname Tie and Zengtou City are colluding to find craftsmen in the Central Plains? Since you know, you should understand that those people are no longer helping Liaoguo." ”
